Camden Depot has provided a Scouting Report on Zack Wheeler, yet another name to keep in-mind for the O’s this coming Tuesday.

Camden Depot’s summary on Wheeler:
“Wheeler is one of the most projectable arms in the 2009 Draft Class, no small feet considering his fastball/curve is already a formidable pairing. While he doesn’t have Turner’s current velocity or Matzek’s refinement in his secondary offerings, Wheeler could develop into a more dominant starter than either. His blend of projection, current stuff and solid mechanics place Wheeler firmly in our Top 10, and under consideration for selection at 1:5. It isn’t difficult to picture him as a potential front-end starter three to four years from now, and right now he’s the top high school righty on our draft board, just edging out Shelby Miller (Brownwood HS – TX).”
